Generation of NO by probiotic bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract
Free Radical Biology and Medicine, 2006Probiotic bacteria elicit a number of beneficial effects in the gut but the mechanisms for these health promoting effects are not entirely understood. Recent in vitro data suggest that lactobacilli can utilise nitrate and nitrite to generate nitric oxide, a gas with immunomodulating and antibacterial properties. Here we further characterised intestinal

Modulating immune responses with probiotic bacteria
Immunology & Cell Biology, 2000For many years, probiotic bacteria have been known to confer health benefits to the consumer. One possible mechanism for this may be the ability of probiotic bacteria to modulate immune responses. Oral administration of Lactobacillus casei strain Shirota (LcS) has been found to enhance innate immunity by stimulating the activity of splenic NK cells ...

β-Carotene Biosynthesis in Probiotic Bacteria
Probiotics and Antimicrobial Proteins, 2013Susceptibility to deadly diarrheal diseases is partly due to widespread pediatric vitamin A deficiency. To increase vitamin A coverage in malnourished children, we propose to engineer a probiotic bacterium that will produce β-carotene in the intestine, which will be metabolized to vitamin A. Such a therapy has the potential to broadly stimulate mucosal

The role of probiotic bacteria in cancer prevention
Microbes and Infection, 2000Colorectal cancer is one of the most important causes of cancer morbidity and mortality in western countries [1]. A myriad of healthful effects have been attributed to the probiotic lactic acid bacteria; perhaps the most controversial remains that of anticancer activity.

Biosurfactants from probiotic bacteria: A review
Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, 2018AbstractAmong microorganisms, bacteria are the main group of biosurfactant‐producing organisms. Different types of bacteria including Pseudomonas sp., Acinetobacter sp., Bacillus sp., and Arthrobacter sp. are among the most commonly studied bacteria in the realm of scientific research.

Microencapsulation of Probiotic Bacteria
2015The global popularity of functional foods containing probiotics has generated increased interest in developing protective materials for the bacteria during food processing, storage and consumption. To confer beneficial effects to the host, a probiotic product should contain at least 106 CFU/g or ml of the product. Probiotic microorganisms are sensitive

МИКРОБИОЛОГИЯ ЖӘНЕ ВИРУСОЛОГИЯ
In recent years, probiotics have been widely used in functional nutrition and pharmaceutical preparations for the correction of intestinal microbiocenosis disorders. Traditionally, probiotic microorganisms are obtained in the form of planktonic cultures grown in the laboratory, however, it has been established that in the natural environment bacteria ...
